The period drama is a work of fiction drawing from the lives of freedom fighters Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama Raju, the makers said. Set in the 1920s, the film follows their early years “away from home (in Delhi) before they started fighting for the country”, according to its official synopsis. RRR will reportedly be released in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam and other Indian languages.
